Visit with Aunt Jaime

We had so much fun when Aunt Jaime was here for a week. I can't even write all the stuff that we did but it was so rejunvinating for me to just have her around. Even if we were just resting on the couch or watching the girls play outside...just having your BFF there next to you is so GREAT! Here are a few pictures to tell of our fun.
The welcome sign - it's a tradition started when Avery was a baby. We put one up every time someone comes to visit. I actually go the idea from Jaime and her mom - they made a sign for me one summer when I went to visit them in New Hampshire. Avery was our official photographer for the two of us. She is getting quite good at holding up my big camera and keeping it steady! I think we might have a photographer on our hands. Aunt Jaime snuggling with the girls on the couch one night. They both immediately took to her - even though it had been about 9 months since they had seen her last. I love that! Avery loved having Aunt Jaime to play with. They played games and had fun decorating the driveway with chalk. Aunt Jaime is quite the sidewalk chalk artist!
Okay, Avery took this picture of her sister. No editing her folks! It might have been on accident but I love how RK is off center...very artsy!
Eating out at Texas Roadhouse...we tried to have a photoshoot outside. This was the best picture of about 30! haha
Now this was Ryan trying to be artsy! haha I love it though!
Thanks for coming to visit us Jaime! Out time together was wonderful and I am so glad that we were able to get a week in! We will see you soon! XOXO Love you, mean it!

Oh dear....the tears!!! Am, you are my very very best friend and I wish DAILY that I lived in that house right next to you (like we used to talk about in college) so that you could give me your kids' hand-me-downs! LOL :) I LOVED my week there and always cherish any time with you. You mean the world to me...you are my medicine (but just to clarify to Karen - I'm not really on medicine! :) haha
I have to stop now bc I need to be somewhere and the tears and emotions are taking over....love you mean it!! xoxo
